I'll have to think about what exactly the code does in that case and
get back to you. As you can see it has only assigned on logainm code.

In my mind logainm:ref=172;85 is the right answer, since this one OSM
object represents 2 objects in Logainm. You can also have one object
in Logainm which corresponds to 2 (or more) OSM objects.

The logainm import code will never change a logainm:ref value that's
there already. In accordance with long standing OSM convention, human
mapping is viewed as better than what the script does. If the logainm
script has done something wrong (like this case), then you can, and
should, correct OSM manually.
